Hooock The Spook

After IMPORTING some fresh data from one PC to another via a floppy disc,
the second PC continually comes up with "can't find a:\backup.pst"
I have tried everytrick in the book but it refuses to let me in!
I even burnt a CD-R with another backup on it but no way, Outlook won't even
look at it!
If I put the original floppy back in the slot, it says it can't access data
on it! Grrrrrrrrrrr!
In anger, I uninstalled Outlook, prowled the registry for anything called
".pst" and deleted it, did likewise with the "search" application,
reinstalled Outllok but exactly the same!!!!!!
Like where is it's brain?
This driving me mad as I have used Outlook for years and never had this
problem.

You have to copy pst to hd, then ensure read only flag is off, before in OL
File/Open/Personal Folders.....browse to pst
